Subject: [real-eyes] wow has anyone seen this? google vs Scroogle
I just tried using Scroogle and got this message.
Forbidden
so sorry...
Google is temporarily blocking this Scroogle server.
Please wait ten minutes before trying again.
Yes, Scroogle is upset with Google.
1. Google handles 1 billion searches per day, while Scroogle handles
350,000 searches per day. This means that Scroogle is 0.035 percent of
Google's load.
2. Google uses 900,000 servers, while Scroogle leases just six low-end
dedicated servers.
3. Google has billions and billions of dollars in the bank, while
Scroogle is a recognized public charity and survives on modest donations
averaging $43 per day.
4. For more than seven years, Scroogle has always made serious efforts
to detect and block any and all bots. Almost every Scroogle searcher is a
live person clicking on a mouse. Yet Google treats Scroogle like a bot
because they see the traffic from our six IP addresses as higher than
normal. Searching Google with a bot is against Google's terms of service,
but Scroogle users are not bots.
Is it "Terms of Service" for Google, or is it "Terms of Monopoly"?
You can tell the Antitrust Division what you think about Google.
